Do you love asking questions, digging into the detail and turning insights into action?
We're looking for an Assistant Product Manager to join our Life & Disability team at MAS. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys research and analysis, thrives on building relationships and wants to play a meaningful role in shaping products that deliver value for our Members. This is a permanent position and can be based in either our Auckland or Wellington Offices.
You'll ideally bring experience in product management or a similar role, along with strong research, analysis and stakeholder engagement skills. You'll be naturally inquisitive, detail-focused and comfortable working both independently and collaboratively. If you're someone who enjoys understanding customer needs, identifying opportunities for improvement and contributing ideas that make a difference, we'd love to hear from you.
What you'll be doing
Working closely with stakeholders across the business, you'll help support and enhance our life insurance products by:
Undertaking research and analysing market trends and competitor activity
Supporting product reviews and continuous improvement initiatives
Identifying opportunities to improve member outcomes and business performance
Preparing reports, insights and recommendations that inform decision-making
Providing regular product insights to support advisers in understanding MAS's key features, points of difference and member value proposition.
Building strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders
Contributing ideas and perspectives that add value to product discussions and outcomes
Supporting the development and maintenance of product-related content and documentation
This is a varied role that will suit someone who enjoys balancing analytical thinking with stakeholder engagement.
About you
You'll be naturally curious, enjoy learning and have a genuine interest in understanding how products create value for customers.
We're looking for someone who brings:
Product management, product support, business analysis or related experience
Ideally 5 years' experience within life insurance, financial services or a similar industry
Strong research and analytical capability
Exceptional attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy
The ability to manage priorities independently and take ownership of your work
Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills
Confidence to share ideas, challenge thinking respectfully and contribute your opinion
A willingness to learn, adapt and continuously improve
An openness to coaching, feedback and ongoing development
Values that align with a collaborative, member-focused organisation
If you're looking for a role where your curiosity, analytical skills and ideas will be valued, we'd love to hear from you.
Why MAS?
At MAS, we're a New Zealand-owned mutual insurer and investment company with a clear purpose - helping our Members achieve financial health and wellbeing.
We're proud of our supportive culture, collaborative way of working and commitment to doing the right thing for our Members. As a smaller organisation, you'll have the opportunity to make a real contribution, broaden your experience and work closely with experienced leaders and subject matter experts.
At MAS, you'll join a team that's:
Motivated to make a difference
Focused on delivering high quality outcomes for our Members
Guided by our values: Make a difference, In it together and Own it, do it
